I can't believe that somebody who is intelligent enough to write this application would miss such an obvious flaw. I literally can not conceive how it wouldn't have crossed their mind that any local app with network permissions would be able to connect to it. Were they just being lazy? Or were they forced to do it this way by some ignorant manager? I would love to hear how this happened.

It's likely debugging utils that were missed when readying for release.

  Mmm, I don't know. I'm going to vote for ignorant management.

  Hmmm just like the "bug" in the data collection software in Google's streetview cars.

Probably outsourced it to a company that doesn't care.
